Pillow Pop

I dropped into Spotlight on the weekend for their yarn sale.

I wanted to buy some more baby wool and at 40% off it was a bargain.

I like the Big Baby 8 ply for the baby knits I'm doing because it's nice and soft and each ball is 100g which means that I can usually get one jumper from a ball. Sometimes there's even enough left over for a hat.

While I was there I saw this book Pillow Pop. There are 25 beautiful cushion designs each from a different designer. I've been thinking about making some new cushions for the house and some these are just beautiful. I think they would be nice as small quilts as well. Have to admit that I'm very taken by the one on the front cover. Very scrappy. There's a lovely hexagon one as well. In fact all of them would be nice in my house!

ANZAC Day...

It's Anzac Day here tomorrow where we remember the men and women both past and present who serve/have served our country in the Defence Forces. Some of them gave their lives in the service of their country. It gives us an opportunity to honour them. Lest we forget.

In 2012 we did the quilt called I am... based on the I am statements Jesus made in the book of John. If you would like more information please email me.
